Difference between Recent Unread Topics and Updated Topics

December 23, 2014, 01:47:26 pm

Hello,
I don't know why but there are some minor difference in the aspect and translations of those two.

If I go to Recent Unread topics (index.php?action=unread) the text under topic title is "Started by the author" and there is no category board.

If I go to News Replies (the title is Updated topics, is that correct?) (index.php?action=unreadreplies) the text under topic title is "started by" and there is the category board.

I attach 2 screenshots.

Why not use the same translation and display always the category?

Obviously. Recent unread (new posts) can be from a new topic but new replies is not. You didn't follow new posts but definitely are following new replies.

I still don't get it, on SM.org are displayed in the same way. Also on my smf forum

Nope. I find them exactly the same. Unread Posts is the New Post here. New Replies is just the same name and functions.

Yes. I can see that. I don't know but I think it is something related to the queries. Without calling for the board name, ElkArte may be using lesser queries. Besides, that new posts are unfollowed. One does not really require a board name. An interesting title will do.

My best bet is that someone did the change to one of the templates (maybe even me) and nobody noticed the difference until now.

And that is one more reason to have all the pages that should look the same use the same template (or at least functions that style the content the same way).

I'm moving this to bug reports, since I think it can be considered very well a bug.

Actually, in SMF (2.0) unread replies and new posts, the locked and sticky pin are also missing in unreadreplies. This is tested in my test sites. But they are all appearing in ElkArte. Since they are theming matters, I never considered them as bugs.
Edited - It was my mod bugs, lol.

I guess it is good to include whatever is necessary in the default theme. If people don't like it, then it can be removed later via addon.

I sow that this was "solved" here by removing the board name in New Replies. I hope it will not remain like this because the name of the board is important in New Posts and also on New Replies specially for admins and mods. In this way we can always control if people are posting in the right board.

I don't think so. It is still not yet fixed or solved. But I believe it is already being tracked.

I uploaded a possible fix here.
Let me know if it works for you.

Yep it's working, thanks!

just one small thing I cannot solve. The word "in" is correctly translated into index.italian.php
$txt['in'] = 'in';
but I see the text as "il" instead of "in"
I attach a screenshot

$txt['in'] has been removed ages ago, $txt['topic_started_by_in'] is the string to change.

At the moment is translated as:

Code: [Select]

Iniziato da %1$s il %2$s

it should be:

Code: [Select]

Iniziato da %1$s in %2$s

or:

Code: [Select]

Iniziato da %1$s nella sezione %2$s

even though the last one is a bit too verbose I think for the space available.
